Adam
The room comes into focus slowly. It then stays in focus for two seconds, before my vision blurs over and I close my eyes again. I slowly sit upright, at which point my head pounds harder than a jack-hammer. A long groan leaves my throat as I heave myself into a passable standing position. The short stretch of room to my shower feels like I'm crossing the roughest, widest ocean ever. I trip over something long and thin, give up, and in the most dignified way possible, crawl to the shower.
Fifteen minutes of scaldingly hot water brings me back from the brink and I walk out like a real person again. A quick toweling of my hair brings up a wave of nausea, so I steady myself on the doorframe. I pause.
"What the hell happened to my room?"
My bed is snapped in half, with my mattress lying beside it - which I presume I was sleeping on. The light in the ceiling is dangling on the ground with a few metres of bare wire hanging out. Looking down, I notice the thing I tripped over is some kind of giant arrow. I pick the thing up, to start in fear as I realise it has at least a kilo of explosive attached to it. I pull it a little closer from my ginger-arms length grasp when I notice there's a stuck on the point. The writing is messy and there are wet patches on it.
Adam, I tested the first one after you crashed and it did bugger all. This has double the explosive, so it should do more than just blow the training dummies in two. I've gone to fit a launcher onto the Range Rover. Bring more beer.
I am completely stunned. What on earth occurred last night? I remember - through the waves of dizziness and nausea - shooting some of the dummies in the training room with Moore. He then cracked open a crate of lager and I can't recall anything from after that.
Deciding that action is preferable to thoughts, I throw on some clothes and head to get some breakfast. When I arrive however, everyone is leaving in a hurry. I grab Alex as he runs past.
"Hey Alex, what's happening? Why the mad rush?"
He shouts over his shoulder as he heads to the armoury. I think. I'm still not too sure about where everything is.
"There are monsters appearing all over the city. We're splitting up into groups to tackle them all at once!"
Great. Now I really need to find Moore.
